According to the company, the award reflects ND Western’s ongoing investments as an independent oil and gas exploration and production company in Nigeria, as well as its exceptional services in delivering value for its customers and shareholders.

We will continue to proactively ensure that our business operation aligns with sustainability goals and builds a healthy environment for our host communities,” he added.

Mr Oji further noted that the award would continue to motivate ND Western in its commitment to independently provide sustainable energy solutions in the Nigerian oil and gas sector.
